New Trends in Mission

Editors Peter Baekelmans and Marie-Helene Robert

“[H]ow do we bring the gospel of Fratelli Tutti and how Jesus embraces every human being [to] our generation, which is so fearful, so suspicious, so self-defensive, and yet so lonely? . . . [P]art of our evangelizing mission is for the Church to really walk with the poor, showing them our closeness, our empathy, our genuine words of justice and charity . . . . And I include here the Gospel of reconciliation and forgiveness . . . so that the cycle of violence, the cycle of division would be stopped—but not by ignoring the past [but by] refusing to be bearers of a hatred that might dehumanize other people.”–from the Inaugural Address of His Eminence Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle
